Title:
USES OF ASCL1 IN INDUCING ASTROCYTE TRANSDIFFERENTATION INTO FUNCTIONAL NEURONS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/058537
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Uses of an achaete-scute complex homolog-like 1 (Ascl1) gene or a protein thereof or an accelerator thereof: (i) use in preparing a pharmaceutical composition for inducing astrocytes to become functional neuron cells; and/or (ii) use in preparing a pharmaceutical composition for treating neurological disorders such as neurodegenerative pathologies, central nervous system trauma, and so on.
